Synchrony is a DEMOPARTY that begins in NEW YORK CITY, continues on an Amtrak train, and concludes in MONTREAL.

Synchrony is about being creative with computers, and seeing how computers can produce amazing sorts of animation, graphics, music, and other experiences. At the end we have COMPOS (competitions) that are voted on by those who are there at the party. Some people may work on their entries for these compos for months beforehand; some, just on the train ride up. People are welcome to enter remotely, even if they are unable to attend.

We encourage work on today’s computers and older computers. (And you don’t have to restrict yourself to the Commodore 64, if you use an old computer.) As is usually the case in the demoscene and with demoparties, we build on the positive force of constructive, old-school hacking, encouraging deep engagement with how computers function. This can mean programming them at low levels, for instance, and being aware of how soundchips and character sets work.

We believe this type of creative engagement should be undertaken by everybody, and we have developed competition categories to welcome a diverse group of people and invite all of you to produce radical, exciting work.
